The original Dragon Age had a dark and gritty aesthetic, with buckets of blood thrown over the party after each battle. In many ways, it was the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 of its era, right down to the Origins. Fans have waited nearly a decade for a new entry in the Dragon Age series, and many expected it to be a direct continuation of the story. The fourth entry was originally going to be called Dreadwolf, hinting that it would involve Solas from Dragon Age: Inquisition. Dreadwolf is gone, however, as the fourth entry is called Dragon Age: The Veilguard. With this comes a new visual style, as seen during the game\u2019s first trailer shown during the 2024 Xbox Games Showcase, now available on the Dragon Age YouTube channel. Unfortunately, the response to Dragon Age: The Veilguard\u2019s look has been criticized by fans on Reddit, with a thread accusing the game of resembling a \u201cMedieval Fortnite.\u201d \u201cI would have never guessed it was a Dragon Age game until the logo came up. Such a massive shift in direction,\u201d one user wrote, while another said, \u201cWhen your instinct tells you something, you should probably listen and save your $75 dollars.\u201d A thread on the Dragon Age Reddit also slammed the visuals, with one user saying, \u201cI\u2019m really hoping this is just a bad trailer and doesn\u2019t actually reflect the tone of the game.\u201d With all of that being said, the first trailer was a CG commercial and didn\u2019t show any in-game footage. Fans won\u2019t have to wait long for a better look at Dragon Age: The Veilguard, as a gameplay reveal is planned for June 11. Then, we\u2019ll get to see if it really is Fortnite with Darkspawn.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dragon Age 4 players convinced Veilguard looks like \u201cMedieval Fortnite\u201d BioWareThe first trailer for Dragon Age: The Veilguard is out and fans have criticized the game\u2019s visuals, comparing it to the aesthetic of Fortnite.
